 A library is an organized collection of books, other printed materials, and in some cases special materials such as manuscripts, films and other sources of information.

 The first libraries consisted of archives of the earliest form of writing - the clay tablets in cuneiform script discovered in Sumer, some dating back to 2600 BC.
 There is also evidence of libraries at Nippur about 1900 BC and at Nineveh about 700 BC showing a library classification system.
 In addition to providing materials, libraries also provide the services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing information and at interpreting information needs.

 Libraries often provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the Internet.
 Many institutions make a distinction between a "circulation" or "lending library", (usually a public library where materials are expected and intended to be loaned to patrons, institutions, or other libraries) and a "research" or "reference library" (where the materials are selected on a basis of their natures or subject matter, and are usually not lent out).

YOGA

 Yoga (Sanskrit, Pāli: योग, yoga) is a physical, mental, and spiritual discipline, originating in ancient India.
 The goal of yoga, or of the person practicing yoga, is the attainment of a state of perfect spiritual insight and tranquility while meditating on the Hindu concept of divinity or Brahman.
 Within Hindu philosophy, the word yoga is used to refer to one of the six orthodox (āstika) schools of Hindu philosophy.
 Yoga in this sense is based on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and is also known as Rāja Yoga to distinguish it from later schools.
 Other systems of philosophy introduced in Hinduism during the medieval period are bhakti yoga, and hatha yoga.
 The Sanskrit word yoga has the literal meaning of "yoke", from a root yuj meaning to join, to unite, or to attach.
 In the 1960s, western interest in Hindu spirituality reached its peak, giving rise to a great number of Neo-Hindu schools specifically advocated to a western public.

Language

WikiSummarizer facilitates understanding by making key ideas VISIBLE. 

This post presents Visual Summary and Keyword Cloud about language based on a Wikipedia article.

Sentence / Verb phrase
 The word "language" has at least two basic meanings:  language as a general concept, and "a language" (a specific linguistic system, e.g. "French").
 The approximately 3000–6000 languages that are spoken by humans today are the most salient examples, but natural languages can also be based on visual rather than auditory stimuli, for example in sign languages and written language.
 One definition sees language primarily as the mental faculty that allows humans to undertake linguistic behaviour: to learn languages and produce and understand utterances.
 The scientific study of language was broadened from Indo-European to language in general by Wilhelm von Humboldt.
 The meaning that is connected to individual signs, words and phrases is called semantics.
